# Overview

The **`rnd()` method** is an inbuilt method in Euphoria that generates a random number between 0 and 1. This method randomly generates floating-point numbers between `0.0` and `1.0` (both inclusive).

This is unlike the `rand()` method, which only returns integer numbers.

## Syntax

```Euphoria
rnd()
```

## Parameter

This method has no parameters.

## Return value

This method returns a random value between `0.0` and `1.0`,  with both ends inclusive.

## Code
The code below shows how the `rnd()` method generates a random floating-point number.


include std/rand.e

--declare the variable to hold the output
atom output

--use a for loop to print different floating numbers
for i = 1 to 6 do
    puts(1,"\n")
    output = rnd()
    print(1,output)
end for


## Explanation
* Line 1: We include the `rand.e` module from the built-in library.
* Line 4: We declare the output variable.
* Lines 7 and 11: We start and end a `for` loop.
* Lines 9 and 10: We use the `rnd()` method and print the outcome to the screen.
